About this mod
Just a splash screen at the beginning for a Land Acknowledgement of Indigenous Nations that inhabit the area that Fallout 4 takes place.

I'm Pottawatomi-Ojibwe living in so-called Canada. I'm not from any of the Nations listed in this mod but I am culturally and linguistically connected to the Peoples in the acknowledgement but I wanted to acknowledge the Indigenous Peoples whose territories the Fallout 4 Commonwealth is built on.
If I’ve missed any Nations, please let me know
For those that know:
Aaniin, Boozhoo. Migizi n’doodem. Negig n’dizhinikaaz. G’chi’mnissing n’doonjibaa.
Bodewadmi-Ojibwe Anishinaabe n’daaw. Aabiding Mide.
This is my first-ever mod — the beginning of what I hope becomes a larger movement to bring Indigenous presence into the worlds we play in.
I started this mod thinking it would be a quick 30-minute job. Instead? It became a 36-hour ordeal involving:
- Broken Linux systems
- Disconnected hard drives
- Virtual machine trauma
- And ultimately… the fix happened by accident
Anyways, to the techincals. This is a replacer version for the game intro, nothing fancy. Something that acknowledges the original Peoples that have and always will inhabit the lands that the Commonwealth finds itself on.
Chi-miigwech for those that survived to help us remember them.
